Frank Wilson paid the penalty of his cnme, (the murder of the Cleven- ger family,) at Prescott, on the 12th anst., and the gallows, apparently, had no terrors for the hardened wretch. Johnson, (colored) who was to have been hung at the same time for com plicity in the murder, was reprieved at the last moment by Gov. ZulIck, upon the statement of Wilson that he (JohnsOn) was not implicated. The truth of Wilson's confession is doubt ed in view of the strong evidence i'm plIcating Johnson, adduced at the Trial, and the reiterated statement of Jessie Clevenger, that Johnson had hand in the killing.

Saturday, August 20, 1887.

No clue whatever has been discov- cred as to the whereabouts of the Southern Pacific train robbers, and pursuit by Sheriff Shibell and posse has been abandoned. The identity of those engaged in the robbery is likely so remain as much of mystery as in the first hold up.
Arizona silver belt., 1887-08-20

The lair of the late tram robbers has been discovered on an eminence overlooking Pantano and miles of the surrounding valley, When reached by the sherif's party the cave was de- serted, but as an evidence of its recent occupation, dried beef, biscuits and potatoes. were. found. The Tucson Star says: Two robbers and two dus- ters did the work. The robbers went through the express cars, and the dus- ters stood guard on the bank as scare crows. This is just about how it was, and it is the only way out of the diff fculty. The austers were taken in the first 'day-the robber are still out. "

That costsEEHDleA+g and foreign ole- ment in the tlood, developed by indi- gestion, is the cause of rheumatism. This settles upon the sensitive sub-cuta- neous covering of the muscles and liga- ments of the joints, causing constant and shifting pain, and aggregating as calcareous, chalky deposit which produces stiffness and distortion of the joints No fact which experience has demonstrated in regard to Hostetter's Stomach Bitters has stronger evidence to support than this, namely, that this med icine of comprehensive uses cheeks the formidable and atrocious disease, nor is it less positively established that it is preferable to the poisons ofter used to arrest it, since the medicine contains only salutory ingredients It is also a signal remedy for malarial fever, con stipation, dyspepsia, kidney and bladder ailments, debility and other disorders, See that you get the genuine.

MEADOW BRANCH.

Mr.. Ed AS the news ofthis vicin-
ity seldom appears in print, presume
that many of the readers of your most
excellent paper will not be able to
locate the place from which 1 write.
Therefore, will SAY: Meadow Branch
is a sequestered vale in the extreme
western part of Berkeley County, en-
closed by the Third Hill and Sleepy
Creek mountains. The news which /
wish to report pertains altogether to
the educational interests of the few
families living in this valley, who
deserve great credit for the interest
they have shown in trying to educate
their children. These people are citi-
zens and taxpayers of Berkeley Coun-
ty. but they are deprived of the BEN
efits of the Public Schools on account
of not having the number of pupils,
40 which the law requires, to establish
school. Mr.. Myers has built a school.
house and furnished it entirely at his
own expense. In addition to this he
boards the teacher gratis, every term
and some years he pays the teacher
out of his own pocket. What man in
the county is doing SO much for the
education of his children?
The board ofeducation appropriated
fifty dollars this year towards de-
fraying the expenses of the Meadow
Branch school. This is a wise and
judicious act upon the part of the
board, and the much needed help is
highly appreciated by the patrons.
Supt. II. S. Butts made his appear
ance in our school on the 22nd inst,
and found full turn out of children
and all the parents present except one.
This is the first time that county
superintendent has invaded our quiet
and secluded domain and it is natur-
al to suppose that the pupils would be
somewhat embarrassed, but a few
kind words spoken by the Supt. caus-
ed them all to feel at home in his
presence, after which they recited
their lessons and acquitted themselves
very well. The average daily atten-
dance for the term thus far is IA.

horrible details to light that no
party or person can uphold or deny.
There was no law or order in the

The law.abiding citizens including
Democrats and Republicans, white
and colored, protested against the
revolutionary proceedings at the
risk of their lives and property. In
some precincts no elections were
held because no man was safe as an
election officer. At other places,
ballots and boxes were forcibly
taken away, changed or destroyed ;
men were shot, hung, and maltreated
in q free-handed way, and no at.

or bring them to justice; in fact,

THE WOOL INDUSTRY.

We publish this week on oul
last page, an article from the Pitts
burg Stockman and Farmer, on the
ool-growing and WOODEN industries
showing that in some way and form
or other American wool interests
are crowded out and kept down By
foreign goods. This is a wool pro
ducing country, except when the
industry is crippled for want of ade-
quate legislative protection. This
State contains thousands of acres
good for nothing else than sheep
raising, and yet it don't pay here
but pays foreign countries to ship
their wool to American markets and
American factories.
One of the leading wool growers
in this end ofthe State is Mr.. James
NJ. Vanmetre. This years clip
brought him over $4,000. He made
sale last week at "a cents, ia ir price
considering the market, though the
quality was extra fine. By good
management and great care, he
loses few sheep, and makes all
possible profit out of his flocks. II
one great and paying American
industry needs legislative pro-
lection and encouragement more
than any other, it is our wool.
growing interests.
